Things just keep piling up. Apart with the situation with mom, I really haven't been feeling well for a few days. Feeling tired, occasional lightheadedness, coughing, occasional headaches, soreness under the eyes, runny nose ( Read more... )

Thursday, I was diagnosed with a stomach virus. Yesterday, the internet went down a little before 10:00am and didn't come back online until sometime after 2:30am this morning. Now, I wake up to a leak under the kitchen sink, and we can't get a plumber until Monday morning. This will put another dent in mom's bank account. It's already getting ( Read more... )

Will my bad luck ever stop? Coldest night of the year so far, supposed to be even colder tonight... and the heating unit decides to go on the fritz! Have one portable heater, I put it in moms room, since she's recovering from an inner ear infection. Me, I'm just dressed heavily. To help heat the back of the house, I turned on the oven (electric, ( Read more... )

Since it's raining, I grabbed an umbrella to walk out to the mailbox. Lots of good it did. A car was passing by on the road, and drenched me JUST as I was about to open the box. :-/

Thinking this is one of those days I should have just stayed in bed. TV in my bedroom died this morning. Then I go to put some clothes in the dryer, only to find the load in the washer shifted, so they were only half done. Had to realign the wash and start the machine again.

My run of bad luck is continuing. I'm certain my body just doesn't want me to eat. If I wasn't ALREADY having enough issues due to my esophagus problems, last night a tooth on the lower right of my mouth has developed a chip in it. Guess tomorrow morning I need to call the dentist to make an appointment, then figure out how to pay for it, since I ( Read more... )

Ugh. When it rains, it POURS! Bad enough I can't find a job, got very little money. Today, I sit down in my desk chair, the right side of it gives way, I almost fall on the floor!

Went in the kitchen and got one of the dining room chairs. Not as comfy as the desk chair though. :-/

Update: A little bit of good news. Got a new desk chair, thanks ( Read more... )

Bad Saturday. Had to call a plumber. Internet was dippy and laggy earlier. Electricity went out TWICE between 5 & 7PM, just long enough to shut down the computers and make the microwave and coffee maker start flashing. What ELSE??

Last night, I was taking my anti-reflux medicine. Dropped the pill. Bent down to pick it up. Hit my forehead on the edge of the computer desk.

This morning, got a massive amount of soap in my eyes by accident in the shower. First time that has happened in YEARS.

Sitting here wondering what is going to happen NEXT??

Well, this day is starting out good. BAD sinus pain on the left side of my face (damn lingering infection). Updated Firefox, and the Classic Compact skin isn't compatible. What next? :-(
